"Do you feel better, Lotus Princess?" Although Jiujiu is reasonable enough to ask her sister, Beiming Xuan doesn"t forget about her tricky expression just now. He really wants to know what"s going on.
"Don"t worry, my dear sister, it will be alright after a sound sleep." To everyone"s surprise, Qingqing closes her eyes at once after Jiujiu"s comfort.
"You must have done something to her. What happened to her?" Beiming Ting questions frantically.
"It"s alright for her. She just needs some sleep, if you cannot believe, please check."
Jiujiu stands aside so that everyone can see Ruan Qingqing.
Qingqing closes her eyes quietly at the moment. Her pale face is tinged with red. No one will doubt that she"s not sleeping.
"The first lady of Ruan family really has the medicinal skill! She can even cure the epilepsy! It"s really admirable!" The admiration spreads from the crowd.
At the time, others can"t help agreeing. For a while, even Beijing Tin doesn"t know whether it is true or not.
"It seems that the Seventh Prince doesn"t believe in my medical skills. If so, please let other doctor judge whether it is real." Jiujiu glances at the crowd, and before Beiming Ting replies, she looks up and asks, "Is there a doctor? Please check it out!"
"Let me check! I am a doctor!" Someone volunteers immediately.
What makes Jiujiu feels funny enough is that there is really an enthusiastic looker-on!
The man comes up, but Beiming Ting is reluctantly to believe that Jiujiu would also be a doctor. But he just doesn"t stop that man.
"From my point of view, the princess is really relieved of epilepsy. She is now sleeping for recovery, which is absolutely the truth."
She firmly believes that it is impossible to unmask her tricks, so she turns to Beiming Ting, "Now you can trust me!"
Who does he trust ? Can he believe Qingqing really suffers from the epilepsy? Or Jiujiu is a highly skilled hidden doctor and she is far better than Qingqing?
Beiming Ting feels he cannot catch up with the quick reverse of the situation. Today, too much has happened!
He looks at Jiujiu, so does Jiujiu.
She looks the same as before, but he has never carefully seen this silly, useless, cowardly orphan girl who has been robbed of fame. Looking at her today, he finds that she has a pair of particularly attractive eyes.
Her eyes are quiet, like the dark night, when staring at someone. People have an illusion of being perspective.
Beiming Ting escapes her sight subconsciously.
Jiujiu gently touches the corner of her lips, and her smile quickly flashes away, so that people cannot catch her emotions, and they cannot not see her intentions at all.
Beiming Ting makes an order, "Someone, come here."
The guard who follows him comes quickly, and he says in a cold voice, "Send the princess back to Ruan Mansion."
Seeing that he gives Qingqing to his own guard with indifference, Jiujiu does not move at all, but people feel that there seems to be a subtle change.
The most subtle thing is that the seventh prince seems to care little about Qingqing, and it seems that he is staring at Jiujiu.
"Ruan Jiujiu, the Empress calls you into the palace. Do you enter or not?"
Do you enter or not?
What a witty question! Jiujiu looks at Beiming Tin. She knows that he is testing her.
After all, comparing how bad she used to be, she knows she is way too much now. No, maybe it"s not good in Beiming Tin"s eyes, but how daring she is!
Only she knows why Jiujiu has changed, and Beiming Ting does not know, but he cannot deny that the girl in front of him is not the original Jiujiu, so he has to try to find out why she has changed, and whether she has really changed.
If she says no, it is because she is just dying of struggle. As the old saying goes, "Even the rabbit is anxious to bite people, let alone a human being! Knowing that your life is not long, how can"t you struggle for it?
Looking at Jiujiu"s dirty little face, Beiming Ting thinks for a moment that he has guessed right, unfortunately...
Jiujiu receives the timid look on her face, and then looks calmly at the seventh prince she used to afraid of, and gently spats out a sentence: "Go, I"m trying to find the Empress for support!"
She wants to find the Empress for support.
Watching Jiujiu"s figure go away, everybody they thinks that she is so wild as to dare to find the Empress for support!
While looking at her fragile but straight shadow, the crowds admire her courage that she can keep her word no matter in what kind of situation. She deserves to be called the first lady of Ruan family!
The crowds cannot help but get excited. It is really an eye-catching reverse. n.o.body expects that there would be such a big reversal between the sisters of the Ruan family.
It is Qingqing who has epilepsy, while it is Jiujiu who takes care of her with highly medicinal skill! What will happen next? n.o.body knows, but everybody expects!
No sooner does Jiujiu enter the gate of the palace than her story has been spread throughout the Forbidden City.
The splendid Fengyi Palace is covered by a gloomy and clammy atmosphere at the moment.
Empress Xiao of Tiansheng Empire sits on a high position. Her eyes are cold, but there is a trace of doubts, because Ruan Jiujiu is now standing under the jade steps, but she actually does not kneel!
She not only refuses to kneel, but also dares to look at the Empress with a tricky smile. Such a calm expression makes the Empress Xiao, who has always looked down at people with dignity, feel very unpleased.
She is not happy, so do the people around her, especially a beautiful girl standing at the bottom of her left, staring at Jiujiu with a pair of apricots-like eyes, and shouting sharply, "Ruan Jiujiu, you are so bold. How dare you refuse to kneel when you see the Empress!"
Following the voice, the girl puts on an angry and disgusted expression. Jiujiu just shrugs her shoulders slightly.
"It is not that I don"t want to kneel, but I really cannot do it, which is all thanks to you, my dear princess!"
This girl is Princess Changle of Tiansheng Empire, the daughter of Empress Xiao, and she is also a friend of Qingqing. When Jiujiu wakes up by the harsh trash, she is the other lady in front of her, so she is also whipped away by Jiujiu.
Once again, Jiujiu admires the White Lotus" medicinal skill, by which she can cure both princess Changle and herself!
"What are you talking about? Whether you choose to kneel or not is none of my business!" Grinding her teeth hard, Princess Changle hates Jiujiu very much. When Jiujiu came in just now, she really wanted to go up and beat her directly, but she was stopped by Beiming Ting.
Beiming Ting wants her to be patient. He wants to see what else Jiujiu can do when she faces the Empress.
At the moment, he sits aside, seemingly casual, but actually observes Jiujiu. However, Jiujiu looks like a rascal as before and he can really not find out what her real skill is!
"Isn"t it the princess and Qingqing who beat me all over? I have a leg injury now. I cannot kneel down."
Jiujiu calmly narrates her tragic experience, but Princess Changle cannot bear it. She and Qingqing try to kill Jiujiu secretly. Although they also bully her, they are not so bold to do it openly.
Most importantly, the Empress changed her engagement and took Jiujiu"s t.i.tle as the princess many years ago. She is also suspected of bullying her as a lonely daughter in the Ruan family. The Empress Xiao does not allow anyone to kill Jiujiu without any reason.
Both Jiujiu and Princess Changle know this. So when she hears Jiujiu"s accusation, she immediately feels upset!
